It's a liberal cesspool full of people who refuse to listen when you speak. I explained how the SMO in Russia was justified going all the way back to fucking WWII and Stepan Bandera to Russia not wanting Ukraine in NATO and some dickhead told me to "tOuCH gRaSS". Didn't even address any of my points, just that "dEnAziFIcaTioN iSnT a gOoD rEasOn, iT's aS bAd aS wMDs".

Fucking moron. I hate that fucking place so fucking much.

It's seriously astounding how little needs to be done to propagate lies here. Like, people often fearmonger about government censorship and algorithmic suppression, and those things ARE problems don't get me wrong, but people waaaaaaay overestimate how much it takes to dupe them.

I mean, you can just search "Ukraine" on any search engine and filter out results from 2022 onwards to get articles that blatantly contradict what's being published today. It doesn't take an elaborate scheme to spread disinformation... It doesn't even take consistency...

Fighting for "freedom of the press" has been a liberal capitalist fight since the beginnings of the printing press. They believe that just because their ideas are banned that they'll cease to exist, probably because they require enforcement from the law and state in the first place. And yet they think themselves to be "following human nature."

Everyone knows very well why. Because the publication of a newspaper is a big and profitable capitalist undertaking in which the rich invest millions upon millions of rubles. “Freedom of the press” in bourgeois society means freedom for the rich systematically, unremittingly, daily, in millions of copies, to deceive, corrupt and fool the exploited and oppressed mass of the people, the poor.

This is the simple, generally known, obvious truth which everyone sees and realises but which “almost everyone” “bashfully” passes over in silence, timidly evades.
